Every color you need for a good painting.

Success is not universally defined. Success is something you define for yourself. Success is what you want it to be.

“Style” is just the way you tend to do things.

I’m doing a livestream sketch/Q&A session to celebrate the re-launch of Art Camp 3 this Wednesday, July 4th at 11am EST. Get a hamburger and away from the family and come join us for fun art times here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OX3KyLID6Xk

Hey artists that do a lot of gold leaf work: What should I buy to get started? Is it ok to use in conjunction with oils? What are your best tips?

I wanna experiment.

Go listen to me and @ImRachelBradley talk about fundamentals.

https://youtube.com/watch?v=0GPq77wM1wc

Thinking about what I’ll teach in an Art Camp focused on oils and realizing it’ll just be 12 weeks of me yelling about how great Liquin is.

I’m selling my MTG artist proofs online, at last!

Only Lies and Memories

https://noahbradley.com/products/only-lies-and-memories

It takes about 5 seconds to see where an artist is at with their skills. The first piece of your portfolio is usually enough. The rest are to prove the one piece isn’t a fluke.

Foundations are practiced, not mastered.

For All That Could Have Been

Of all of the easels I have used in my life, I think my favorite is just taping my piece to the wall.

For context, I mean fully painting over the sketch. Perhaps just 5% of it would still be visible.

Oil painting on top of a digitally painted and printed rough sketch. Thoughts on what collectors will think?

Greeted by a deer and a bunny when I walked into my studio this morning.

I have become a Disney princess.

Thanks JJ for taking a chance on me. <3

If you want to paint faster, try painting slower.

Speed comes from making more confident, correct choices and working efficiently. It has vanishingly little to do with flailing your brush around.

Folks who think immigration is too easy have clearly never dealt with it.

The road to hell is paved with bad values.

The Day God Died

The Day God Died

A lot of people seem to mistake happiness for fulfillment.

Making art fulfills me. It does not make me happy for every second that I’m doing it. There are plenty of times that making art is not enjoyable, but ultimately fulfilling.

Draw better trees this summer.
